This past Sunday XiXi was assigned his first church talk. The topic was "My body is a temple" and since metaphor seems like more of an advanced language skill, we just went with, "Heavenly Father has a body. I have a body. I can take care of my body."

This early run-through was certainly not his best delivery, but I love how he chastises his oldest sister for not holding his picture up for everyone to see. The kid's got chutzpah, oh yes he does.

Why Scravings?

The family vernacular for tidbits of food left on a plate after a meal, as in, "I'll give my scravings to Charlie," or "I CAN have dessert. This is just scravings." It seemed an appropriate word for the little morsels thrown out on our blog. Sometimes tasty, sometimes destined for the dog dish.
